Remembrance services were held across Leeds today as the city paid its respects to those who paid the ultimate sacrifice.
In Leeds city centre, the Lord Mayor, Councillor Stephen Holroyd, led the city’s central act of remembrance at Victoria Gardens.
A parade of ex-servicemen and women, veterans’ organisations, and current serving military personnel, led the procession of dignitaries to the war memorial from Rossington Street.
The multi-faith service was followed by a two-minute silence at 11am and a rendition of The Last Post.
Yorkshire Evening Post photographer Steve Riding captured the following pictures of the service...
